Your guessing is good. Smile

Thanks. I will fix it.


I wouldn't bother fixing it coz it seems nobody else is having a problem understanding anything except for me.

For example, cbpporter says

Quote:

with BSD, MIT and MPL we can distribute our software that links with U++ libraries under any license we desire. And we are not required to acknowledge in about box/copyright/documentation that the software was developed with U++


If you link with U++ libraries then you are redistributing "the software" in binary form and the BSD license says
Quote:

Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the ... <license>.


The fact that the software was developed with U++ is irrelevant - it's only what gets distributed that matters. If you distribute "U++ software" (whatever that is - open to interpretation) you must "include" <the license>. Since U++ libraries are part of U++ software by any reasonable interpretation, then you must acknowledge that in documenation/ about box, regardless of whether the libraries are modified or not.
